Across the country, McDonald’s restaurants are becoming what the New York Times calls a sort of “everyman’s Starbucks” where the elderly, school kids and the homeless linger for hours. Customers can buy a cup of coffee for a dollar, and then camp out, at times causing friction with management. One manager at a Queens, NY McDonald’s called the police on a group of older Koreans that had been gathering at the restaurant.
